It's a "crack a beer and migrate that one final app of yours off Next.js because their CEO is a giant piece of shit who will take selfies with a genocidal maniac for clout and we just can't support that in any way whatsoever" kind of night. Cheers 🍺

we boycotting Vercel or nah??

One thing I learned about web hosting when I worked in that space: It's not very sticky. Extremely easy to switch providers on a whim. Point your repo somewhere else. It's online! There are SO many choices when you want to deploy. preview. ship. Thinking about this today for no reason!!

Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I think microblogging is great You cannot learn to read and do critical analysis in all of the needed ways by only reading in snippets Read articles, read books, read poetry, listen to hip-hop with an attention to the lyrics Think about the possible, multivalent meanings Discuss them at length

Seeing all the new tricks for CSS being implemented is making me fall back in love with programming again

Assata Shakur has "died in Havana, Cuba, as a result of health conditions and her advanced age." She was 78.

Lesson learned: never edit README on GitHub in the browser. Twice today, I was in the middle of editing, accidentally clicked a link that jumped to another page, hit back, and poof - everything was gone. Someone please give GitHub autosave (aka durable execution).

Can't believe this man came out of the womb of a Black woman. This is wild.

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like "A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act." fuck yeah

The Rapture debuts tomorrow and Jimmy Kimmel is coming back tomorrow. So therefore Jimmy is in the Rapture? Who else is in the Rapture? How many songs are on the album? Will Spotify stream it?

Best thing about my new place: so many cafes and wellness spots owned by Black Women/Queer ppl near me. Worst part: choosing between a Sorrel smoothie or Plantain brulee latte 😂

The more I learn about disability, the more it shows how little the world gives a shit.

Guess Ben & Jerry's is for facists now.

Yes, the news is dumb, but "I want universal healthcare and better income equality, as long as it doesn't benefit the queers, Black or Brown people, or immigrants" isn't exactly a new liberal stance.

Diversify Tech is still going despite all the chaos around us! Here is what we shared this week: 💼 CalMatters, The Calyx Institute and EdReports are hiring 📆 Techqueria Summit is coming up ⭐️ The Recurse Center is accepting applications for fall & winter newsletter.diversifytech.com/p/diversify-...

Blacksky the feed will always be Black only. Blacksky-only posts on blacksky.community will be Black only. you can think of Blacksky Algorithms the company as Reddit for AT Protocol. We will make other “subreddits” Community been here for 2 years and company for 1 year. Im the founder of both.

If a UI element is interactive, exposed to AT, needs event listeners, needs role/aria customisation, and needs programmatic focus. It should be in HTML. It's frustrating this is a conversation that even needs to be had.

Two somewhat contradictory beliefs I hold: 1. You should absolutely overengineer your personal homepage/blog/projects. Experiment with as many things as you can as quickly as possible. 2. If you _really_ wanted to write that blog post, you'd figure it out with a .txt file. Don't overcomplicate it.

About to write a chatgpt fan fiction in manga style where @rude1.blacksky.team stages a hostile takeover of BlueSky, meanwhile Jay goes off to a mythical land to try to get the company back. (cue the Ruff Ryders anthem playing in the background)

God is Good. Such a beautiful week it's been.

I AM GETTING A LOT of software developers asking about how they can make the most out of going to their very first conference. I don't even mean just juniors either. It's across the board. Many are coming to CYC for their very first conference ever. What advice DO YOU have for them?

It seemed like people were into personal websites again, and then it just seemed to have died down over the past year or two. I wonder if folks no longer work on their personal websites because they don't want to have to deal with code, logistics, etc.

Mastodon is funny as hell sometimes

Heard the "Yes It Is" remix... No offense to Muni but if that track had been just Leon Thomas + Marsha Ambrosius, it would've been perfect.

This is true. I have too much Le Labo as it is

I’m looking for the people who understand the Ai era is here and not going away, but are locked in on the human experience and how to both protect and enable people both in and out of tech. Who and where are they?

You might have heard AI boosters say: "it's okay that this tech is wrong half of the time, because the human operator 'partnering' with the LLM will catch errors." Except no they fucking won't. The actual context in which these systems are deployed make checking the AI's "work" impossible.

NOT the "it's class warfare so can the darkies please stop making everything about race" leftists. Please stay in your study circles reading Marx.

It's amazing what you can do by taking the time to read and understand code. It's not as fun as jamming out new code, but can be far far more effective. I wrote a blog post about this: letterstoanewdeveloper.com/2018/09/24/l...

“Every technology is both a burden and a blessing; not either-or, but this-and-that. Nothing could be more obvious, of course, especially to those who have given more than two minutes of thought to the matter.” Technopoly: The Surrender of Culture to Technology

Great way to end hump day and right in my city.
